Improving Tomorrow

Virginia Service Commission Strategic Plan Framework 

Presented by: Audrey McGovern Candidate for Editorial Manager 

Our Purpose We believe in the power of service and volunteerism to spark change, strengthen lives, and produce lasting impacts for communities throughout Virginia.

This purpose drives the GOAL of VSC’s State Service Plan.

Our Goal To inspire more Virginians from across the Commonwealth to engage in service and volunteer experiences to combat disparities and meet our most pressing needs.

This goal will guide our work to advance THREE INTERRELATED STRATEGIES.

1

Build a Stronger Culture of Service, Volunteerism, and Civic Engagement.

2

Build a More Representative, Integrated, and Aligned Network of Partners.

3

Build a More Robust Resource and Support Infrastructure.

We will advance each strategy through THREE TARGETED ACTION AREAS.

BUILD A STRONGER CULTURE OF SERVICE, VOLUNTEERISM & CIVIC ENGAGEMENT 1. Policy Change 2. Civic Health Index Development 3. Awareness, Recruitment & Recognition

BUILD A MORE REPRESENTATIVE, INTEGRATED & ALIGNED NETWORK OF PARTNERS 1. VSC as Convener & Catalyst 2. Equity Advancement 3. Governor’s Advisory Board Empowerment

BUILD A MORE ROBUST RESOURCE & SUPPORT INFRASTRUCTURE 1. Private & Public Investment 2. Capacity-building & Program Development 3. Stakeholder Mobilization & Engagement

We’ll know we have succeeded when:

VSC has advanced knowledge and policies that promote and incentivize greater participation in national service, community volunteerism, and grassroots civic engagement.

VSC has mapped and mobilized Virginia’s service and volunteerism ecosystem through active engagement and built coalitions across all sectors — and across the Commonwealth.

VSC has developed a strong and growing pool of resources to fuel the expansion of impactful programming to meet identified community needs in all areas of the Commonwealth.
